PICKWICK POOL TEAM

02/10/25: Not the start to the season we were after as we played away to Eltham Pickpockets at the Terrace. The match started to slip away from us from the word go as we got blasted off the table. Cobb got our first frame on the board and Louis settled Pickwick nerves with a nice finish, to close the first set with a one frame deficit. In the second set we found ways to lose frames and a good hiding was on the cards. At 7-2 down the Gypsy chalked up our third frame. Cobb dry dished and Leighton played the frame of the night with a controlled break and clear. Final score was a 9-6 defeat as we rallied somewhat in the last set to salvage some respectability. Cobb was our man of the match with 2/3.

The original venue.


The infamous pole that restricted cueing. Probably the MVP in the majority of the Pickwick's home match victories. Such an iconic landmark in the SE London pool scene that the pole has since become embraced as the team's logo.
